Also the fact that barb wire and crazy stunts are still novel in WWE. They use them when they are warranted, not excessively

Sami is the best mic man in wrestling. No matter if it is a skit, a backstage interview, a sit down interview, or an in ring promo, I believe everything he says and he sells his story to get the audience to care

Sami was my best on the mic last year. No matter if it is a backstage interview or skit, a sit down, or an in ring promo, I believe everything he says.

I have been ultra critical of Hangman’s character for a few years. The inconsistency is maddening. Tonight I loved the way he explained his character without attempting to excuse his behavior.

The program feels hot. Jey feels hot. My concern is that it has peaked too early. Building more anticipation for 9 weeks will be a challenge

Fun angle that has become just another match. The heat is gone

I still think he needs to work on selling on the move. By not doing so, he forces his opponent to put him in place. Hurts the match flow

The big difference of this match compared to other similar matches is how much they got out of the big bumps. They were risky, but they made the move worth the risk

I know people are all about Fatu, but I need to give credit to Tama. He is taking the bumps and putting in the work in all of his tag matches. He is a selling, bumping and working machine.

Finish was lame. Match lacked heat. I fear Chelsea is an internet favorite who resonates less with the crowd at large. I hope she can start connecting more with the greater audience

I would like to see Pat eliminate Dom. Better yet, I want to see Dom eliminate Pat.

Cannot deny there was some intriguing energy when they were standing in the ring. Tonight Owens/Punk became a match I want to see

I didn't remember Mandy had a slogan. Does not seem it was "patent pending." Probably an attempt to get her name in the news.

HHH is my favorite wrestler of all time. Hard to argue that it is not deserved. Also, given his position, it is hard to ignore that it is controversial. For me, I am happy to see him get his flowers during an era where most fans see him as part of a solution to making WWE better.

In wrestling, there are heel promos and there are face promos. Tonight both guys cut money promos.

It was easy to predict a Gunther victory. But with that said, they had me with the two near falls towards the end. Masterful. Felt a lot like the Jey and Bron match where Jey got a surprise W

Agree. Both women brought it. Loved the faster pacing. Nia is at her best when she is not trying to be safe. You can tell when she is timid. Tonight, she was not timid, but still in control.

If the dominant heel faction builds interest in the opposing babyface beating them it is working. Right now I don’t feel that is the case.

About the death riders, the sad part is I enjoy all of the members (sans Wheeler) individually. This is a sad case of the whole being less than the sum of the parts. Moreover, I do not think the subject of the death riders is polarizing. I think there is a level of consensus that it is not working.

Love the idea of the match. I am not certain the time feels right. If they are going with the match, I feel significant work needs to be done to boost Bianca back up. Her mission statement has not been set for another title reign.

It might not be the best idea, but it for sure is an insightful example of a leader who is fully invested and committed to the nuance of producing his talent and getting the most out of what they bring to the dance. Others could learn from this,

Respect your perspective, but I how perceived that she stopped to slowly pose and remove her ring attire in a sudden death gauntlet match with vulnerable competitors and than strutted to the ring with very little fan fare.
